Creighton Courier and Creightonian

Creightonian, August 30, 1991

The University Archives has most issues of two Creighton newspapers, the Creighton Courier and the Creightonian, available online

In 2010 the University Archives completed a project initiated by Reinert-Alumni Memorial Library to digitize the newspaper collection.  The Creighton Courier and the Creightonian were digitized by Olive Software, which also serves as the online host for the newspapers. 

Creighton Courier

The Creighton Courier began in June 1912 as a semi-monthly supplement to the Creighton Chronicle.  The emergence of the Creightonian led to the discontinuation of the Courier in 1924, but it was revived in November 1925 as a publication aimed at alumni.  The Courier ended in 1927 and was replaced by the Creighton Alumnus magazine. 

Creightonian

The first issue of the Creightonian came off the press in October 1922.  The weekly student newspaper soon supplanted the Creighton Courier as the primary source of campus news.  Today, the student-run Creightonian publishes a weekly print edition as well as a Creightonian Online version during the academic year.  (The University Archives has archived the Creightonian Online since 2010 as part of the project to archive the university website.)
